Comment #13 on issue 143 by jlamkw: Handle color profiles in tagged images
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=143

It's really disappointing that Chrome isn't color managed. Safari has been  
color
managed for a long time and so does Firefox 3 (not enabled by default but I  
heard it
will be in 3.5). It's better to get things done the right way while the  
user base is
still relatively small as it will be a much more disruptive change later on.

Chrome and IE are holding the web up in terms of digital photo quality.  
Looking at
the whole digital imaging workflow, it's often the output part of the  
process that is
the most limiting, e.g. narrow monitor/printer gamut, color-stupid image  
rendering
software.

Input: image sensors are advancing in terms of dynamic range, gamut and  
bit-depth
Processing: most proper image processing software have been color-managed  
for years
Output: even monitor manufacturers are now pushing the technology ahead by  
producing
wide gamut, 10bit+ display panels. Browser is the most important image  
display
software and it's sad to see that it is becoming a bottleneck.
